Not Perfect!

I'm here not because I'm perfect and professional or better than others, it's because I know I'm not enough so I want to learn more and more!

Everything

Entering into this small room reminds me of every little bits and piece my childhood. The soul of this museum--Peter Black collected everything from old photos, toys, dolls, screens, embroidery to sea shells, amusement parks/circus things and unusual animals specimens, it is a room full of his interests, emotions and stories! Stepping into this small room is like being in a amusement park and circus, it's filled with fun and surprises!

The most interesting things is definitely the gallery of those old photos! Peter Black collected many photo shots of dwarfs like General Tom Thumb, giants and unusual people like Annie Jones(a woman with beard), three legged man, two headed woman....you will be stuck at this narrow corridor for hours discovering surprising pictures!

Another interesting room for me is the one exhibiting unusual animals specimens. There i saw the tiniest bull terrier, 2 headed lamb, 3 legged duck, robins, rats...many kinds of animals. I wish i could take some pictures to show, but it's not allowed or I have to pay 1000 pounds for penalty ^^"

Everything Museum takes place near Chalk Farm tube station. Here's the information about Everything if you're interested! I'm sure you'll have fun there! :)

Klang

Last week in Letterpress class, we were asked to use this typeface called "Klang" to design a 300x300mm size big layouts.
At the beginning, i was a bit confused about this task, but glad i have a nice group to discuss and share ideas with each others, so i came up with my ideas soon.

At first, i try to do some research about KLANG on the Internet, but there's not much information about it. Luckily, I still found a short paragraph describing KLANG:

"British designer Will Carter designed Klang™ in 1955. A printer with a respected private press in Cambridge, Carter was also a skilled calligrapher. He combined his expertise with press and pen in creating this strong, masculine calligraphic-style sans serif. Klang leans at a slight right angle, giving the impression of movement. Klang is an ideal typeface for casual display typography where the touch of the artist's hand is welcome."


I kept reading this paragraph many times to try to come up with some ideas. Finally i focus on the keywords!
I grab the "keywords" of KLANG from this paragraph, and tried different layouts on my sketch book:

 Finally, I made these keywords to become the background:

After sharing this idea to my group, i realized that i forgot an important thing that the biggest and smallest size of words we can use are 48 pt and 14 pt. ^O^"
Looks like I have to try some more ideas based on the rule! ^^


Here are some cool layouts from my group:
